She's brilliant and reasonable. And if she disagrees with anything Obama does--which isn't too often--she'll voice her opinion without bashing the character of the man.

I can't, for the life of me, understand why the hell Obama would nominate this man.

He's a career spook who advised the last five Presidents. Who do you think might run the CIA?

and, he'll still be working for the President.. the way he wants it done.

Brennan, a 25-year veteran of the CIA, has served as President Obama’s Advisor for Counterterrorism and Homeland Security since 2009. “For the last four years,” President Obama said, “John developed and has overseen our comprehensive counterterrorism strategy -- a collaborative effort across the government, including intelligence and defense and homeland security, and law enforcement agencies.”

President Obama called Brennan “one of the hardest working civil servants I’ve ever known” and said that he valued Brennan’s integrity and commitment “to the values that define us as Americans.”

“He has worked to embed our efforts in a strong legal framework,” the President said. “He understands we are a nation of laws. In moments of debate and decision, he asks the tough question and he insists on high and rigorous standards.”
